Welcome to this beautifully maintained, end-of-row townhome in Columbia, MD's highly sought-after Forsgate neighborhood. With 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and just under 2,400 square feet, this home offers a light-filled, positive atmosphere throughout, enhanced by numerous updates that make it feel like new.

A charming portico entry leads into a bright foyer and spacious interiors. The well-equipped kitchen features quartz countertops, raised-panel white cabinetry with updated double drawers and pullout storage features (installed in 2023), as well as under-cabinet lighting (added in 2023). Stainless steel appliances include a brand-new refrigerator and stove/range (both replaced in 2023). The inviting breakfast room provides a peaceful view of the surrounding greenery.

The airy dining room transitions to a sunlit living room with large windows, creating a warm and welcoming space. Roller shades (installed in 2023) provide both privacy and natural light. A slider walkout gives easy access to the elevated rear deck, the perfect spot to unwind at the end of a busy week while enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Upstairs, the light-filled bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings, adding an open, airy feel. The owner’s suite offers two double closets and a newly remodeled garden bath, with a large vanity, oversized frameless glass shower with multiple jets, river rock ceramics, and built-in bench seating. Fresh painting throughout the home further adds to the inviting atmosphere.

The lower level is designed for both relaxation and entertainment, with a cozy rec room, fireplace, a wet bar, a full bath, and dedicated storage space. A walkout to a covered patio further enhances the home’s indoor-outdoor appeal.

Additional updates include a newly renovated powder room (2023) and a brand-new washer and dryer (2024). The HVAC system was replaced in 2024, ensuring comfort and efficiency.

Ideally located just minutes from Centennial Park and Fairway Hills Golf Club, this home offers easy access to commuter routes, shopping, dining, recreation, and entertainment. Don’t miss the chance to make this bright, inviting townhome your own.
